Job Hunting Tips

Here is a public service anouncement for all you potential job hunters out there. Don't bother to do it yourself. After a few weeks of going online, posting resumes, using places like Monstertrac, I had not gotten a single response. Then my good friend David, who recently started working for Bell Helicopter, decided that he didnt know enough people in Texas and thought that I should work there to keep him company. So I forward him my resume to show people, and within 2 or 3 days I get a call saying they wish to fly me out for an interview. I just got off the phone with their HR person. Really amazing.

So don't waste your time with actual job searching. Just find someone you know who is arlready "in" (no, not necessarily a verizon customer. You watch too much television) and let them do it for you. I mean, Bell Helicopter was one of the places in which I went online and submitted a resume and such. Didn't get a response. Same resume. I was just lacking the amazing power of David.

Of course this does not mean I will actually get a job, but to get to have an on-site interview set up is pretty sweet. Yeah free trip to Texas! Man, why couldn't Bell Helicopter be in Puerto Rico?
